System Overview

Introduction

Portwell Inc., a world-leading innovator in the Industrial PC (IPC) market, announced WEBS-21B0, a fan-less intelligent embedded system featuring Intel® Pentium® / Celeron® Quad/ Dual-core Processor N3000 Series (codename Braswell). Its rugged, compact design plus low power consumption make WEBS- 21B0 the perfect solution for applications in kiosk, digital signage, in- vehicle mobile video surveillance, medical, and the harsh environments of factory automation. The new rugged WEBS-21B0 is equipped with the Portwell NANO-6061, a NANO-ITX embedded board based on the dual/quad-core Intel® Celeron® /Pentium® Processor N3000 Series (4W~6W TDP), which integrates the low power the 8th generation Intel® HD Graphics architecture that supports up to 3 displays with a maximum resolution of 4K and doubles performance compared to the previous generation. The compact WEBS-21B0 embedded system also features DDR3L SO-DIMM up to 8GB supporting 1333/1600 MT/s; one DisplayPort (DP) on the rear I/O with resolution up to 3840 x 2160; one legacy VGA interface support; one smart COM port for RS-232/422/485 selected by BIOS; and multiple storage with 2.5” HDD/SSD, mSATA as well as SD card. In addition, WEBS-21B0 is designed especially for IoT applications. The compact 150mm x 150mm x 50mm box integrates the latest M.2 type E interface, which targets wireless connectivity like WIFI, Bluetooth and near field communication (NFC) functionalities, making it an ideal solution as an IoT gateway. The rugged, fan-less design makes the WEBS-21B0 durable in harsh environment applications, such as factory automation and industrial automation. The rugged and compact WEBS-21B0 supports a temperature range from 0ºC to 50ºC for harsh environment operations, while at the same time, its fan-less design ensures silent operation, reliability and low maintenance rate and costs. In addition, it has already passed a vibration test of 5Grms/ 10~500Hz and a shock test of 50G, assuring its solidity and reliability. In addition, the system accepts 12V input voltage. With its superior, up to quad-core processing power, high capability and excellent 3D graphics via the 8th generation Intel® HD Graphics, Portwell’s WEBS-21B0 is indeed an ideal solution for high computing power and/or high 3D video/image applications.

Check List

Flow Control

| Flow control can prevent data loss from buffer overflow. When sending data, if the receiving buffers are full, a ‘stop’ signal can be sent to stop the data flow. Once the buffers are empty, a ‘start’ signal can be sent to re- start the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to send start/stop

signals.

Q4: Function limitation
Answer:

  1. USB 3.0: In PssMark Software, the speed of USB3.0 should higher than 2400 Mb/S, but Brasewll products only can reach 2000.8 Mb/S.
  2. UART (M.2 socket for NANO-6061): In Win7, the UART from SoC can be extended to M.2, so we can apply UART signal. However, UART cannot be extended to M.2 in Win8.
  3. For memory support, the different between 32bit and 64bit type of operating system as following:
     | 32bit OS| 64bit OS
    ---|---|---
    Memory sizing| Up to 4GB| UP to 8GB

Note: Braswell supports memory sizing up to 8GB/per channel

How to install Windows 7 in NANO-6061?
Answer: Windows 7 installation media does not include native driver support for USB 3.0, so during installation, when you get to the screen to select your preferred language, a keyboard or mouse connected to a USB 3.0 port does not respond.
